A Cat Named Jim — Deborah T. Mangel

Jim is a cat whose family loves him very much. Jim likes hanging around the house, and the family can usually hear him purring. He likes to play and sometimes hides in the hydrangea bushes, waiting for birds.

Most days Jim walks with the mother of the house to the grocery store, but he always sits on the sidewalk and waits to walk her home-especially when she goes to the butcher! Even though he likes to spend a lot of time outdoors, he always comes home for meals.

But then one day, Jim disappears. Where can he have gone? What has happened to him?

Full of great illustrations, A Cat Named Jim is a fun children's book for early readers about the whereabouts of a happy cat who goes missing one day, much to his family's surprise.
